Kitchen cabinet refacing is the best kitchen upgrade you may not have heard of. When you consider making changes to your kitchen, you may immediately feel overwhelmed at the amount of work that would take, or it might be out of the question due to budget concerns.

When a full kitchen renovation can cost upwards of $80,000, leaving you without a functional kitchen for weeks and can be a lot of work, it can feel totally out of reach for homeowners. However, kitchen cabinet refacing is a great option. Refacing offers a smart, efficient alternative to achieve a stunning kitchen transformation without the complexity and high cost of a full cabinet replacement.

What is Cabinet Refacing?

Kitchen cabinet refacing entails replacing the doors and drawer fronts of your existing cabinets while leaving the cabinet boxes in place. Pick a new style, pick a new colour then the cabinet exteriors are covered with materials to match the new doors and drawer fronts, resulting in a fresh, cohesive look.

At Custom Roll-Out Drawers, the process uses ¾” High-Density Fiberboard doors covered with durable vinyl, which is both low-maintenance and long-lasting. We manufacture our cabinets right here in Calgary, which passes savings onto our customers.
In addition to the aesthetic upgrades, you can also improve functionality with new drawer boxes, slide-outs, and organizers. This way, your kitchen will look modern and function better.

Time-Efficient and Clean Process

One of the biggest perks of cabinet refacing is the amount of time it takes to complete. Once your design is set, materials are custom-made to fit your kitchen, which typically takes around 6-8 weeks. However, the actual installation is remarkably fast—usually just 1-4 days, depending on your kitchen size. Who doesn’t like an excuse to order pizza and your favorite takeout for a few days?

Compare that to a full kitchen renovation, which can leave you without a functional kitchen for weeks or even months. Refacing offers a cleaner, quicker transformation without the need for demolition or extensive construction, minimizing disruption to your home.

Cost-Effective Solution

As long as you love the layout of your kitchen, cabinet refacing is recommended over a full renovation.

Renovating a kitchen can come with a hefty price tag. Cabinet refacing is a cost-effective alternative that delivers the look and feel of a brand-new kitchen at a fraction of the cost. Instead of replacing perfectly good cabinet structures, refacing focuses on aesthetic upgrades, which helps to keep the overall costs low. This allows homeowners to reinvest savings into other elements of their kitchen, such as countertops or appliances.

If you need more storage, we can add additional cabinets, convert a microwave shelf to a cabinet or wine rack, or adapt cabinets. If you have a vision, we can do our best to make it happen.

Prioritize Functionality

While the design of your kitchen cabinets plays a crucial role in the overall appeal, functionality should never be compromised. Refacing allows you to make the most of your kitchen’s existing layout, but it’s also a good time to rethink how your space functions. Installing drawers in place of lower cabinets, adding custom dividers, or including built-in organizers can significantly improve your kitchen’s usability.

Elevate with New Hardware

Upgrading cabinet hardware is an easy way to personalize your kitchen while staying within budget. With an endless selection of handles and knobs in various shapes and sizes, you can tailor the aesthetic to your liking. Whether you’re modernizing for resale or simply adding your own flair, cabinet hardware is a risk-free way to express your style. It’s amazing what a difference beautiful new hardware can make.

Maximize Space Inside Cabinets

You want your kitchen to look nice, but you also want it to function well for you. Beyond the exterior facelift, refacing gives you the chance to upgrade the interior functionality of your cabinets. Adding custom features like drawer dividers, rollout drawers, or door racks can drastically improve your kitchen’s organization. Whether it’s keeping spices in order or making pots and pans easier to access, these small changes can make a big difference in how you use your kitchen.

Why Refacing Might Be Your Best Option

If you’re looking for a way to refresh your kitchen without the hassle of a full renovation, cabinet refacing offers a fantastic solution. It’s quick, cost-effective, and customized to your style and needs, all while minimizing the disruption to your home. Whether you want to update the look, improve the functionality, or both, refacing gives you the flexibility to achieve your dream kitchen within your budget.
